Hi all,

Looking forward to a day off tomorrow and Im gonna spend it detailing the new motor.
Is there a way to take of the ST side skirts? I have notices that both sides have come off of the clips and need a clean underneath.

Thanks,

Matt

There are some slide clips that slide to the front of the car to remove the skirt. I am sure there are only two of the clips.

Are you sure there are only 2?

I have seen one at the front and one in the middle and I must admit I havent seen a clip at the back but there must be as the length form the middle clip to the back is too far to not be clipped on.

Could be more than two, but I have only seen two of them on my washing expeditions.

There are quite a few clips. I havent counted them but there are some smaller white ones and larger black ones.

The ones from my side skirts that have come undone are the larger black ones near to the rear wheel arch. When refitting them you slide the clip head into the slots and shove it back on with a click.

Taking them off? Pull.

I'll give it a whirl, thanks!
